Illinois DUI / DWI Laws and Penalties

The minimum sentence for a DUI charge under Illinois law is a Class A Misdemeanor. It can result in penalties of:

up to 364 days in jail

fines up to $2500

Loss of driver’s license for a minimum of 3 months

Required alcohol abuse treatment programs

significant increases in your auto insurance rates

A Permanent criminal record that cannot be expunged. Your conviction will literally follow you around for the rest of your life, show up on any background check, and even possible google searches in the future.

You may be ineligible for international travel / entry into Canada

And starting in January 2009, any DUI conviction will result in a mandatory breath alcohol ignition interlock device being required to go in your car, for 1 year. The BAIID requirement will kick in when you are eligible to have your driver’s license reinstated after the initial suspension period (typically 3 months for a 1st offense DUI conviction).

For these reasons and more, it often makes sense to fight DUI charges whenever possible. The downside of taking a DUI to trial may not be that great when you consider all that you are agreeing to if you plead guilty.
